HITA Chapter 11

“This brother, are you perhaps also here to participate in the Wulin Tournament?”

“Hahaha! I don’t have that capability. I’m just here to put in a vote for Young Master Xie Hao!”

“This young swordsman, you’re too humble! But I’m also very optimistic about Young Master Xie Hao.”

“However, it’s quite strange that the eldest young master of the Tang Family isn’t participating this time!”

“Indeed, if the eldest young master of the Tang Family also participates, then I’m afraid that Young Master Xie Hao may have no chance of becoming the leader of the Wulin League…”

A man wearing a bamboo hat walked past them. Upon hearing these words, he couldn’t help but pause for a moment. Then he immediately walked into the private room of the inn. 

Squeak

“Older Brother Xie!” Ran Shu, who was sitting on a chair, stood up excitedly. The man took off his bamboo hat and revealed a face so handsome that it could charm any woman. 

“Shu’er.” Xie Hao smiled slightly and said, “It must have been a tiring journey.” After he said that, he walked over and supported Ran Shu to sit down. 

“Shu’er isn’t tired. Nothing is tiring if it’s for Older Brother Xie!” Ran Shu said with a blushing face. 

Xie Hao felt deeply moved and called, “Shu’er!”

“Older Brother Xie!”

After that, the two were so deeply in love that they couldn’t help themselves. 

“Tsk—a pair of lovebirds.” Tang Xing leaned against the door and watched as the two people in the room engaged in affection. He couldn’t help but sneer and said, “Then I shall give my blessings to the two of you.”

However, it wouldn’t be proper if he didn’t give them a big gift. 

Tang Xing heard footsteps nearby, so he turned around and left. 

“I, Xie HAO¹different Chinese character (浩), will use HAO to avoid confusion, thank you all for your support and attendance!” A burly man stood in the middle of the arena with his hands clasped into a fist. His voice rang like a bell in everyone’s ears, “Today is the day to elect the leader of the Wulin League. As long as you can defeat me, then this position will naturally change hands. If not, my son will inherit my position.”

The people in the audience looked around, but no one dared to go up and fight.

Xie HAO wasn’t surprised. As if he had already expected this, he said with a smile, “In this case, I will announce that this year’s Wulin League Leader is…”

“Wait.”

A charming female voice sounded and startled everyone. 

They saw a magnificent sedan carried by four young girls in purple clothes. To be able to lift the sedan in the air as if they were walking on flat ground, the four young girls also had extraordinary strength. The purple sheer curtains of the sedan were blown open by the wind, and one could vaguely see that there was someone sitting inside the sedan.

The sedan slowly landed on the ground. Then the four young girls bowed slightly and retreated behind the sedan. 

A slender hand lifted up the sheer curtains, and everyone couldn’t help but hold their breath in anticipation.

Suddenly, the owner of the hand paused and withdrew her hand. 

The audience felt that it was quite a pity.

“Since whoever wins the fight has the final say, there’s no harm in trying to compete.” The person in the sedan spoke again. Xie HAO snorted, “You want to challenge me, but you don’t even dare to show your face. You know that this is a competition and not some joke, right?”

“Haha.” The person in the sedan chuckled. Through the thin curtains, one could see the person inside propping up their chin with their hand.

“Naturally, I’m not the one who will be fighting.”

Needless to say, everyone thought that it was very strange. Suddenly, a burst of purple smoke drifted over from afar. 

“It’s the Hundred Poison Sect!” Everyone was shocked. 

Upon hearing this, Shi Shuiyue halted briefly, and then sighed helplessly. Fei Di was acting too quickly—she didn’t even finish her lines yet.

As a qualified antagonist, Shi Shuiyue worked diligently to cause trouble, and this time, the target was Wulin League.

The Hundred Poison Sect would come to cause trouble at every Wulin League Leader election. Shi Shuiyue also didn’t know the reason for this, but it seemed to be a tradition passed down from the first sect leader. Thus, the members of the sect naturally regarded this as a matter of course. 

Shi Shuiyue: “…” No wonder none of the previous sect leaders lived a long life—they were all just playing with death ah!

However, the Hundred Poison Sect hadn’t come to cause trouble for a long time. Thus, the Wulin League couldn’t help but loosen their vigilance. This allowed the Hundred Poison Sect to easily launch a successful attack on them. 

In fact, Fei Di was also somewhat surprised. But, with her confidence, Fei Di naturally attributed the success to the fact that her poison was too strong. ‘Yep, that’s right! That’s what happened. If anyone dares to say otherwise, then I’ll treat you to a plate of scorpions!’ (Everyone silently covered their mouths.)

At this time, the members of Wulin League also came to their senses and rushed over in panic to confront the enemy. Just as Shi Shuiyue thought that she could retreat, someone in the crowd shouted, “That woman in the sedan must be from the Hundred Poison Sect!!!”

Shi Shuiyue: “…” This kind of person should be beaten to death. 

With this reminder, everyone finally remembered the woman who was speaking rudely earlier, and all eyes were instantly focused on Shi Shuiyue.

Shi Shuiyue looked at them indifferently and slowly stretched out one of her arms. Just as everyone put up their guards because they thought that she was going to spread poison, Shi Shuiyue whispered, “Retreat.”

After that, everyone watched as the sedan flew away. 

Everyone: “…”

Wait—something didn’t seem right with this situation?

Whatever—they should quickly chase her!

As a result, the scene of Shi Shuiyue running in the front and the members of the Wulin League chasing behind her appeared. 

Shi Shuiyue, who was sitting in the sedan, pondered about scattering a few gold coins on the road for them to pick up. 

Shi Shuiyue seemed to have thought of something—she lifted the curtain and told four sect members, “Later, you guys pretend to be defeated and let them catch me, okay?” This way she could get inside their headquarters.

“Yes, Sect Master!” The four of them didn’t understand why Shi Shuiyue wanted them to do that, but since the sect leader told them to do it, they just needed to follow her orders. 

In order to let them successfully catch up to Shi Shuiyue, the four of them stealthily slowed down their pace. 

Shi Shuiyue: “…” She quietly turned her head to look at the members of the Wulin League who were getting closer to them. 

‘Who said ‘stealthily’? I promise not to beat you if you come out!’
